<<... but self-promotion is sort of your full-time job isn't it JM? >>

That's unfair. I have occasional breaks to watch porn :)

Actually, I've seen your Munro series jousting either side of my books in the kindle legal thrillers top ten and gave a mention of them a while back on another thread; so perhaps no surprise that you've seen mine and I should reciprocate.

Visit www.jakecorey.com

Synopsis:
A gritty, down to earth thriller. A real page turner. Ester Gray, who is quintessentially English, was trained by the best, her father. Brought up under unusual circumstances, she is an expert in unarmed combat and survival. Her father also taught her morality, loyalty and determination. Her prodigy and partner is James, brought up in the drugs underworld by a drug addicted and abused mother. The two team up with the hardest that Newcastle has to offer to secure the release of James's mother and defeat the Romanian mafia in Britain. Physical skill, combined with intelligence and brute force against the most ruthlessness and violent gang in Britain.
Over 300 pages long.

Reviews:
" I started reading it last night, I agree with everyone who says it's a page-turner! I woke up at around 1:30 this morning and started reading Devil's Orphans. I was intrigued, not only with the story but also with the chapter beginnings and the myriad references to '60s music. Never paid much attention to song titles or musicians' names, But I stayed up until 4:50 am, reading the book and listening to music samples on Amazon.com!! All your fault!!! :)" (J)

"Great. Worth every penny. I'll get the next in the series too." (C)

"A very, very good debut thriller. From the first page this thriller gripped me. The characters are strong and alive and the violence is believable but gruesome.
A recommended read."

"A great book! The author captured my attention from the first page, the book is so full of action I could not put it down. There are no superfluous words, one has to read all to follow the plot and storyline. Plenty of action with a couple of juicy sex scenes. I thoroughly recommend it as a compelling read. I shall certainly be looking for the next book by Jake Corey"

"I downloaded this book to give me something to read on my holidays, but was so gripped I finished it in a single sitting. A fantastic thriller with a surprising twist at the end.
Great value for £[]. Thoroughly recommended."

"Through twists and turns, a real page turner. Enjoyed the author's way of 'Painting' the pages with words. I could 'See' the scenario as I was reading. Must be a movie producer's dream. I see Halle Berry as Ester). Who do other readers suggest?
The author's command of the English language (and the not so English!) was admired and enjoyed. Pleased that the end was left open for a sequel."

"Great read, highly recommended.
Ester and her prodigy James make a fantastic team.
This exciting story has a surprising end that opens up for a sequel."

"Absolutely outstanding - bought the book for my wife and started reading it myself - couldn't put it down. The only bad thing I have to say is that I can't find any other books by this author. It's a thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat, written in a fresh, easy to read style. The story will be a movie some day. Highly recommended."

You won't be disappointed!

My last published work might be up your street - Bobby on the Run.

It's about a UK police officer falsely accused of a serious crime he didn't commit. He gets locked up and then escapes custody to prove his innocence. I have been told it's easy to read and there is plenty of action along the way.

I'm ex-police and have spent most of my life learning, practising and teaching Lau Gar kung fu and full contact kickboxing (there's a fair bit of fighting action). So I know my onions so to speak.

Just another option for you that you might not otherwise have heard of ...

Bobby on the Run - Winston Bugle.

Murder, mystery and intrigue with a bunch of weirdo's thrown in for free.

ALL IN, even has its own brand of humour.

I'd like to recommend you my book. I see you are a first time poster, I am a first time author. I've spent a couple of years on my first book and finally it is out there. But as a first time author who nobody knows, it's not easy to get out there.

What I really liked about your post was that you enjoy twists and easy reads. So do I. I've only ever read the one John Grisham book book called. 'The Testament,' but it was one of the best books I ever read!

So I would definitely recommend that to you, but if you want to take a chance on a new author, then take a chance on me.

Have a look at my web site www.palmerfiction.com and from there you can read the first three chapters of my first book 'Lost Innocence.'

Would love to hear your thoughts on the first three chapters and if you like it, I'll gladly email you the rest.

Take care, Simon

Hi John. You are an author too, how interesting..

Check out my site www.palmerfiction.com

[Customers don't think this post adds to the discussion. Hide post again.  (Show all unhelpful posts)]

For me its so difficult to find a good book. Yeah so you can ready the back cover, stand in the store and flip through a few pages, but is that enough...?

You feel guilty as the guy watches you wondering if you're going to buy and your uncomfortable standing or leaning for so long.....

So I make it easy, easy for people to come onto my site, read the first three chapters of my book, read reviews, look at the cover, read my motives for writing and then decide...

I propose that if you are not liking a book after the first three chapters, then you will not like the book, put it down and pick up something else, but if the first three chapters pull you in, then take a chance on a new author.

And I realize that a lot of new authors come here to sell there books and I say, so what! Give the reader the first three chapters and if they like it, great! If not, what have they lost....

So all you readers out there, take ten minutes to check out the first three chapters of my book, post a comment on my site, would love to know your thoughts, good or bad....If you like, I'll email you the rest, gladly, if not, it has only cost you your time.

Thank you for listening...

Aspiring author (hopefully)

Simon
